I encountered the same problem, and I could also not uninstall the program for the same reason. I found that if you disable the UAC via Regedit program, it will work. I hate to pay Broderband $30 for the same program again (for a .1 upgrade? That's Unconscionable!). I use it so infrequently that I will just turn UAC off and back on when I do. Here's the path to use in REGEDIT program:
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
then click on the EnableLUA item, and then change the Value "1" entry to a Zero, and back again as needed.
